Got it for a friend who's a lover of masala teas. Heard no complaints from her yet, so I suppose she liked it! Thanks, Adagio!

If I’m not going to have an authentic chai experience, this is my go-to for chai! I add a splash of Somrus Chai liqueur on chilly autumn nights.

This was a wonderful afternoon delight. Perfect on the rainy day while reading. I did add a little pumpkin spice to the tea as it was simmering. It reminds me of a trip to India where I was first introduced to Masala Chai.

This is a good masala chai. Spice flavors are strong and clear without being too overwhelming toward one particular spice. I like my masala chai hot spicy (as in pepper/ginger hot) and this one meets that need. The pieces in the mix are not too fine, so there's no 'grainy' feeling in the mouth after drinking. Overall a very good masala chai!

I absolutely love this tea! It is my favorite tea in the colder months because the spices are warm and fragrant. My kids love this tea with milk and honey. You can't go wrong with this one!

I mixed this with Raja Oolong Chai and Samurai Mate and its AMAZING! I was trying to find a similar match to a teavana blend that I loved so much. This is pretty close!

I love chai teas, especially during the winter and fall. I enjoy this tea with a small amount of local raw honey and a small bit of milk, but it’s delicious without anything added as well. It’s one tea I always keep stocked.

I am a big chai fan and this one doesn't disappoint. The flavor of cinnamon and clove come through beautifully. I add a splash of cream for a drink that is perfect on a crisp, cool autumn morning.

Since the recent tea shop closing in our neighborhood my wife no longer had access to her favorite tea. I took the chance on ordering it from Adagio and she loves it and it is at a great price. Score one for me too.

Fantastic Chai, my go to for the morning. My favorite Chai from Adogio. Pretty high caffeine content and is a great substitute for coffee.

Not my favorite chai by a long shot. Way too much clove for my taste, but if loads of clove is your jam, check it out.

Probably my favorite chai. I used to like Raja Oolong best, but over time the fiery cinnamon flavoring wore thin for my taste buds. And Masala can be more readily varied I think. And yes, I typically steep for 5 minutes only.

A wonderful warm chai, great alone hot or as a latte.
I also enjoy it as an iced tea. It's not overly heavy or bitter, truly delightful.

Chai is my absolute favorite tea blend, and this one is fantastic. Quite spicy and toasty with a lot of caramel-like undertones

I love the masala chai tea! Its flavor is very nice to my tastebuds and the spices mix well together and it isn't overpowering on any one spice. I tend to steep it for 12 minutes (2 more than the recommended) to get maximum flavor.

I mix this with Samurai Mate and Raja Oolong Chai (as well as the rock sugar) as a replacement for the former Samurai/Maharaja chai. All together they have a great spice and flavor, but I double the scoops because I like my teas *strong*. My coworkers love the aroma it gives off as well which is a great plus :)

Delicious! I had never really had chai before and was somewhat skeptical of this blend, not really being familiar with this combination of spices, but luckily it was provided to me through a free sample and I loved it. It made my home smell quite nice and reminded me much of gingerbread... and now I'm finally getting myself some more <'3

Does anyone have a suggestion for chai that doesn’t have so much clove?

I go back and forth between this and the Thai Chai, and I love them both, depending on my mood at the time.

a little sweetener.

This tea is smooth and spicy and tastes great with some oat milk. The cloves are a bit overpowering, but if you like cloves, you'll surely enjoy this tea!

A pleasant masala chai blend. Go for a full 5 minutes if you want to get the most spice flavor, or cut it down to 3 if you just want a hint of the spices.

Strong classic Chai tea. Clove and pepper flavors really come through. This tea is also nice to blend with other teas that need a bit of a kick of extra flavor. My favorite is to blend 3 t Thai Chai blend with 1t Masala Chai per one quart of tea. Add some rock sugar and oat milk for a lovely latte. Dessert in a cup!

Another great chai tea. I love the flavor. I am a fan of the Raja Oolong Chai and I would definitely recommend this tea also.

Masala chai is one of my favorite teas, but it's not my favorite tea on Adagio. I've tried this two ways: according to the directions on the sample packet I ordered, which is to use '1 heaping teaspoon per cup,' and then the way the description suggests, which is to use 2 teaspoons. The sample packet instructions resulted in tea that was a little bit too weak while, when drinking it on its own, the description instructions were a bit too strong. I imagine that the ideal probably lies somewhere between those two points if drinking it on its own, but the 2 teaspoon preparation worked perfectly for a dirty chai latte, which is what I use it for now! This is definitely a tea I'll keep on hand because of that.

I drink chai daily, and unfortunately I did not like this variety. The only note that comes through is clove. I opened the package and was taken aback by the strange smell but decided to brew it and see if I felt differently. The taste is slightly less strange, but not balanced. Because of the return process, I won't be returning it, but do feel like it is money wasted on a tea that I don't enjoy.

Pretty good tea. Like it hot. Needed a little sweetener in my opinion. Not really sure how to write 100

I normally like chai, but this chai immediately was a chai that I did not like. After some investigation, I discocered that it contained ginger. I tried removing the ginger from the bled, but the flavor still was all I could taste.
If you do not like ginger like me, do not get this tea. Otherwise, it is good.

Absolutely delicious! I think this tea is best enjoyed with milk, brown sugar, and without a steeper. The bits of ginger that float to the top add a bit of extra flavor and are delightful to chew on.

Still the absolute best chai I have ever tried! The flavor holds up well even when the leaves are reused a second time - it's that strong. Forever fav!
